Y = 3x - 7...the slope here is 3 while the y-intercept is -7
3x + 9y = 9
9y = -3x + 9
y = -1/3x + 1....the slope of this line is -1/3 and the y-intercept is 1
the slopes 3 and -1/3 are negative reciprocals of one another...therefor, these lines are perpendicular.
Answer: B. The federal funding available for education declines.
Step-by-step explanation:
Government fiscal policy pertains to spending and taxation strategies aimed at influencing economic direction. Generally, it can be categorized into Expansionary or Contractionary policies. An Expansionary policy involves increasing government spending or lowering taxes to provide consumers with more disposable income. Conversely, a Contractionary policy implies decreasing spending or raising taxes. Thus, a decline in federal funds for education could result from a Contractionary fiscal approach.
Hello!
(x+a)·(x+b) equals x²+xa+xb+ab which simplifies to x²-12x-45
x² equals x²
xa+xb can be expressed as (a+b)x = -12x thus, (a+b) = -12
ab equals -45
Under what conditions do (a+b) equal -12 and ab equal -45?
+3-15 results in -12 while (+3)(-15) gives -45
-3-15 yields -18 and (-3)(-15) results in +45
+3+15 produces +18 and (+3)(+15) also equal to +45
-3+15 equals +12 and (-3+15) results in -45
Conclusion:
(x+3)(x-15)
